Abstract

An essay is presented that compares Iberian monarch Alfonso X the Wise's religious artistic, poetic, and musical manuscript "Cantigas de Santa Maria" ("CSM") to his profane manuscript "Cantigas de escarnio e de mal dizer" ("CE"). Topics include portrayals of sexual acts in the illuminations and miniatures, the portrayals of the Virgin Mary, and unconscious aspects of the texts.
